Our Team

David Onneken        (Owner/Coach)

Growing up I was always active but never found anything that was both challenging and diverse. That all changed when I started CrossFit about 9 years ago. In getting my first certification I was able to get a greater appreciation for the fundamentals. Building off that I have put this into practice coaching for the last 5 years. My focus has always been on technique and follow-thru. This helps to ensure proper progression not only with weights but with intensity and skill level in mind.

I am the quiet one of the group but will always be there to help and guide along our fitness journey together.

Kaitlynn Onneken (Owner/Coach/Nutritionist)

By day I am a mom of 2, and teacher! I run a cheerleading sports academy and teach grade 7/8. I started CrossFit in 2017; it quickly became my favourite sport. 

I love being active, eating well and enjoying nature! I love hiking and finding ''healthy'' alternatives to good recipes! (Because eating healthy should be tasty too!)

My goal as a coach is to improve people's quality of life by working on their performance goals, but also on hardships or challenges such as injury, pregnancy, weight loss, etc.

Nikki Lavoie Rudland (Coach/Personal Trainer) 

In my 20’s I was a competitive cyclist in mountain, road and velodrome cycling. I was introduced to Crossfit in 2014 and it quickly became my new addiction.

 

As an Occupational Therapist I  like to blend my rehab professional knowledge with my fitness knowledge of body mechanics, lifting technique and functional movement. I take my fitness outside regularly as I love to rock climb, backpack, kayak, rollerblade, mountain/road bike, cycle tour, and cross country ski. I spend most of my summers camping with my husband Marty and my two boys Rowan (15) and Elias (11). 

 

As a long time athlete turned coach, I am excited to help others become their healthiest version of themselves.

Alexis Michel (Coach/Personal Trainer) 

I grew up in sport and rugby culture. I joined the french navy at 18 years. A few years later I finally became a strength & conditioning player. 

I discovered CrossFit while I was playing rugby in the USA in 2015, and really liked the method and the community. I began to train and coach CrossFit daily in 2017. 

As a Rugby and CrossFit coach, I love to help people and athletes to achieve their goals!
